Over the years, the most common feedback we've received from female anglers is that we haven't offered any women's chest waders that were truly designed with women in mind. Until now. Introducing our new women's Silver Sonic Convertible-Top Waders. After taking input and suggestions from a large number of female anglers, we started over from scratch and designed a wader built specifically for women. We tested them on a wide variety of body types, made tweaks and adjustments, and we think the results speak for themselves. Never again will you have to borrow a pair of waders. We have your size.

"The waders are an amazing fit... I haven't had a pair of waders fit me in the 16 years I've been fly fishing and these are absolutely perfect."

Perfect for woman.,

March 27, 2015

By: bbdurepos

from New Brunswick Canada

"This is the best waders that any woman should have. Why I was wearing ugly, bulky man's waders? They fit just right, the measures are good, except for the waist (my waist is 4 inch bigger than the chart) I ordered the size that I taught, according to the rest of the measurement. Of course I was afraid that it would be to tight on my waist line, but no, THEY FIT PERFECT. It took a while to receive them, so do not wait this summer to order. I FEEL SEXY IN THOSE WADERS, BELEIVE IT OR NOT. Can't wait to go fishing!"

"Received these as a gift and haven't used them yet, but they appear very well made. Had to order the Medium Tall because of my large feet (size 10), which is giving me a little extra length. Neoprene feet don't seem to be made for a woman's foot as they are rather wide and a little sloppy."

Excellent!,

December 20, 2014

By: ozzybren

from Australia

"I've been fly fishing for over 15 yrs and this is the first wader I have had that fit. I am over 50 and not slim and terrific. It's nice to have a product that doesn't have a tiny waist and a huge butt. That is a problem I find a lot with women's clothing in general. I don't have a high waist so the pettite is great. If I get any heavier though I would need a 1x so I hope they make them for the ladies that are in the future.

I haven't had them in the field yet but I will assume that they are a tough and reliable product as all ORVIS gear. If not I will let you all know. I'm pretty hard on waders.

Finally, They only issue I have is shoe size. It seems that no one thinks women have large feet. My toes are actually rubbing on the ends and I hope they don't wear a hole in my toe or vice versa.

Great Job Orvis! Thanks for taking we women anglers into serious consideration!"

Good waders,

December 17, 2014

By: retiredtroutbum

from Arkansas

"I've had 3 pair other expensive waders. All leaked, all saturated over time. Yeah can treat with tech wash and revivex but never the same.

These silver sonics fit great, don't leak at all, and are warm enough with proper layering. Time will tell on the saturating, but at this price point, I can afford to replace. I wade 300 days / year. I'm an orvis fan now.

Good value, and awesome fit. I'm 5'2, 118 lbs, athletic. Smalls are perfect. Room for layers but not poofy or too baggy. Love the color. Love the length. Enough fabric to bend down on knee. Not too much, just right.

Wish I had a hand warmer pocket. Don't care about the summer feature of dropping top down,"

The Perfect Waders,

November 3, 2014

By: RiverwalkerWA

from Seattle, WA

"The best thing about the women's Silver Sonic Waders is the fit. They are perfect. I followed the size guide that Orvis provides. They are so very well made and comfortable. I'm glad I didn't waste time and money on cheaper waders or waders made for men. I expect years of service from these waders and if I wear them out, I'll buy another pair!"

Best Decision,

By: ErnieDianeO

"New to fly fishing this year, I had a lot of gear to purchase. The Orvis Women's Silver Sonic Waders was one of the best decisions. Sturdy, well made, and a perfect fit... A stocking foot without all the excess....Now my feet fit nicely inside my boots. And I love that I can drop the bib so easily and stay cooler if I need to."

Great Product - Worth the Buy,

September 7, 2014

By: pete6186

from North Idaho

"I did much research before buying waders and purchased the Silver Sonic late spring this year. (I wanted to wear them enough before writing a review too). For those that have doubts like I did on sizing, it was worth it to go into an Orvis endorsed store and try a pair on. I've worn my Sonics so far in Alaska, Idaho and Oregon and am rather impressed with this product. Whether it's getting in and out of a boat, plane, or climbing over rocks to get to a fishing hole, the Sonics just WORK. They still look brand new with as much use as I've put them through.

My size is 5' 4" / 145 / size 7.5 narrow feet and the Mediums fit well. After enough wear I do notice they are slightly long for me in the leg and torso, so I think a petite M size would have worked fine too. There is plenty of room/adjustability for layering and they are quick to get into - the elastic bands located under the armpit are a perfect thought to the design. The pockets are great and the waterproof pouch is tough, seals quickly, stays sealed yet remains easy to open. The drop down half works great in hot weather. These waders are very breathable / dry fast.

Don't waste your time on buying another brand of waders."

comfortable waders!!,

August 26, 2014

By: GRmom

from northern Wisconsin

"Very happy with these waders.I am 5'2" and 115 pounds withlonger legs and shorter torso.Although the small petite fit betteraround my torso, the shorter inseamwould not work when I am in thesquatting position so I opted for theregular small. Very comfortable,I like the convertible option. The neoprene socks have seams on the the sidesand do not rub. (The firstwaders I received had the left footsewn incorrectly and was narrowed at the toe. I called and a new pair was sent out that day with overnightshipping.) The waterproof pocketis okay--a little bulky and difficultto open (particularly if you're tryingto answer your phone, but iswaterproof). Overall, I like thesewaders very much and they are asignificant improvement over myprevious men's shaped waders."

meets a tough challenge,

August 13, 2014

By: marfishes

from syracuse, ny

"I'm a regular size 5'5" 125lb with big feet - 9 1/2 and the only way I could get stocking feet big enough was to order med tall. I spent long time with "Buck" on chat on-line who re-assured me that this combo would work - and it does. They're beautiful waders, way better than my nascent flyfishing skills but I hope I grow to deserve them. Thanks, Buck!"
